Imagine if you could halve the amount of crimping required for AMP Superseal contacts on your next medium to large scale wiring project/s?
Used by MoTeC, Haltech, Link, FuelTech and more, the AMP Superseal 1.0 connector is a standard in the aftermarket ECU industry. One niggle however on larger scale wiring projects is the fact that the standard terminal requires 2 crimps, one on the body and another over the insulation.
While this isn't a deal breaker for those doing a low volume, it is a gripe for those at the other end of the spectrum and Race Spec offers a solution with a custom solid contact which requires only one crimp via an DMC MH860 crimp tool and corresponding die.
This is something squarely aimed at the professional 'mass production' end of the motorsport market and something Andre was keen to test himself while shooting more material for the Professional Motorsport Wiring Course recently.
While not shown here, a backshell and booting are strongly recommended to finish the job, topics also covered in the wiring course material for you over at: https://hpcdmy.co/hpa
